Each channel is I/O-ed into a Roland UA-101 audio interface for mixing with Cubase. I usually mix digitally so I can save the settings and edit them easily. The house system is powered by two 1200W power amplifiers and a Behringer EQ (set to flat - didn't have time to balance everything), a crossover and a compressor. (P.S. everything here you can purchase from Mama Treble Clef Studio - call 03-95432201 and we can help you set up a stage and sound system and balance it as well.)</div><div><br /></div><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgbR4WSBkgD-E2gGEAeQTzIT4hyuWtDctfxzIXErnN3CD36V2bNTBfYV3OSVA7Eg4cgSLmi37JTgFpYY_IOEP2nt2DjmSTSWY3d68TRjBnark5WXkS-Tgaa14Ob4iKhRVLvg1ZHIP_zBIA/s1600/IMG_0005.JPG" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgbR4WSBkgD-E2gGEAeQTzIT4hyuWtDctfxzIXErnN3CD36V2bNTBfYV3OSVA7Eg4cgSLmi37JTgFpYY_IOEP2nt2DjmSTSWY3d68TRjBnark5WXkS-Tgaa14Ob4iKhRVLvg1ZHIP_zBIA/s320/IMG_0005.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5675075160725486466" style="cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px; " /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhoJvN4mmbuTd1Rq8w2-95ZcH55gdllIrAQAkVfTRNHA26SgxPepHht4OvGqBM6RIQzIRKoBLOzzBiN9ku-Gj4H-hKABPjtf8uJRU4jV_jXrr1AqMbd0yoXgCc7HsD1DyO-vk5NbNH8ZXY/s1600/IMG_0073.JPG" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhoJvN4mmbuTd1Rq8w2-95ZcH55gdllIrAQAkVfTRNHA26SgxPepHht4OvGqBM6RIQzIRKoBLOzzBiN9ku-Gj4H-hKABPjtf8uJRU4jV_jXrr1AqMbd0yoXgCc7HsD1DyO-vk5NbNH8ZXY/s320/IMG_0073.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5675077750656149218" style="cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px; " /></a></div><div><br /></div><div>The bass amp was DI-ed (direct inject) to the mixer and we had 4 stage monitors.

Most of you may know me as a teacher in the music store Mama Treble Clef Studio and in-house musician (technician/admin guy/IT department/repairman/brute strength lifting dude/the guy you turn to when everything goes wrong and want things fixed in the shortest time possible without prior notice) among other things. I've been given the task of chronicling events that will be going on for the next good month or two. So here I am, writing this on my (infamous red-flamed decorated Toshiba Qosmio that weighs 7kg) notebook in a new, empty lot that we will be moving in shortly. Thing is, we've been talking about moving and all for quite some time now as some of my students might be able to attest to, and it's finally coming around. This, however exciting and fun it may seem - and actually is, I assure you - poses a bit of an issue to some members of the team (okay only two), particularly Ray Lee (right) and myself.</p><br /><br /><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgpUFIgddmfGe7vzvNJYShRLNBWPQV-mcJw-zRZIzj3v3p-fGW1TGrbzmUiVs5clf2rHdvqqvLtM14pWV4ATvnZEzF9SMC78wEGgOUHyWL0SKK8ltlkiyCXYZS5sH0bQmISiEXSr7DyjKU/s320/IMG_0531.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5654774822588260514" style="cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px; " /><br /><br /><br /><div>A bit about the company background; we started out as a small, miniature lot with practically 3 guitars, 2 pianos and around 50 students back in 2005-2006. Back then it was much simpler; a 300 square foot room that we basically furnished and renovated ourselves. A few years later we came up with the recording studio which we also furnished on our own, and the current 3 conjoined lots which, yes, we did ourselves. One reason was due to our budget (read; lack thereof) and simply because we didn't have much to do around the tiny store anyway, and also picked up a bunch of skills - mainly dangerous, tiring and monotonous - like installing partitions, wiring the ceiling and lighting, as well as sitting in an enclosed room with cancerous toxic fumes.</div><br /><br /><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEglaxrI7IlgizSGU20gTsW8yDvEzpHwQ0qMuRTXrYsVwbVUQhJqyNfRiFkUPsyGe5G7ZxVbM6lOZ2UNAmwSCXlrAn1zwDRDuCCGWOOWWkI6hadZ_XSVwFFwPgLFHXAyC8wXAprb5EVII7s/s320/07.png" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5654779836104112962" style="cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 213px; " /><br /><br />And now we're moving for a third and possibly final time to this monster of a venue, enough to house all divisions of the shop, inclusive of a recording studio, performance stage, showroom, cafe and music classes (natural disaster relief spot, emergency gathering area - who knows what else, really).<div><br /></div><div>So anyway, we've had some experience in renovating and doing things on our own as you can see, but this is a whole different experience. It's a different thing furnishing a 400 square foot venue versus a 13,000 square foot venue. First of all, the cost involved is much larger, and there are some things you just can't do without spending half a year trying to pry open (i.e. the air-cond ventilation ducts which are drawn from the shopping complex's mains). Then there's the issue of decorating the space, purchasing enough stock to fill it up so that it doesn't look like the North/South Korea demilitarized zone, and finding reliable staff that show up on time and disappear when required (as opposed to random times and the worst possible moments where you feel like strangling the nearest form of intelligent life not unlike a Phua Chu Kang script).<br /><br /></div><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjLytL6-V4TXk5uW5Y7Syo7AeAzj0TRKYhYnkAMebXNQZH3qBlo6rHuyUGJbFWbkyboR03OfA7-KKiPFDFMxvuwoF7ZxrRAYfrqSyjEMz19kUfp-_dcyjBUHkZj6rcXS0Drl_uHqj3aI6o/s1600/5970_1100134948013_1365858894_30236539_1688927_n.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjLytL6-V4TXk5uW5Y7Syo7AeAzj0TRKYhYnkAMebXNQZH3qBlo6rHuyUGJbFWbkyboR03OfA7-KKiPFDFMxvuwoF7ZxrRAYfrqSyjEMz19kUfp-_dcyjBUHkZj6rcXS0Drl_uHqj3aI6o/s320/5970_1100134948013_1365858894_30236539_1688927_n.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5654780224468416626" style="cursor: pointer; width: 250px; height: 320px; " /></a></div><div><br /></div><br /><br /><div>To Be Continued....</div>Ray Leehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07095748472133461001noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6939554215142905371.post-62852938888508205562011-08-19T15:54:00.001+08:002011-08-19T15:54:39.536+08:00Solo Piano Performance by Siang XiOur in-house teacher Siang Xi, member of the fusion group JUNK plays his own composition in our studio, as a demonstration of pop piano playing.

They also come in all sorts of price ranges as well, depending on the player, experience and budget. Today's review will take a look at the new range of guitars from the brand Jaxville; Demon, Hades, and Zeus. Basically a guitar catered to the entry-level market, each guitar is adorned with high-quality airbrushed images which make for a stunning display on stage or in the studio.</p><p class="style1"><strong>OVERVIEW</strong><br /><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi-GoL9TqZo9Ofnr1-Be9PfUfefXbPmUSvcnbsbXoEHISYpplhK1WigiDlLL9cxuo9rfs1BOwvulG0cjUxeRv-fSJ82iEfb0TSQ3_4UBuG7-5fblUfvf2wT9RLclt_y0s5xz6elyRfz0GQ/s320/Jaxville+Demon-Dark+Gothic+Design+Guitar.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5634683017383783954" style="float: left; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 0px; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 126px; " />The Jaxville Custom Series II guitars are distinctive designer guitars with a penchant for the stage. There are 3 "themes" to choose from: "Demon" showcases a red-and-black theme of flames, "Hades", named after the Greek god of the underworld depicts a shadowy figure in the moonlight, and "Zeus", the King of Gods, has lightning bolts splitting the guitar apart. Each guitar is finished in hi-quality gloss finish, with matching headstock and neck. All guitars are based on a Fender design, with three single-coil pickups and a rosewood neck, 22 frets each. The review unit was packaged with a 10-watt amplifier, a soft case and an instructional DVD.</p><p class="style1"><strong>FEATURES</strong><br /><br />Construction: Bolt-on<br /><br />Body: Basswood<br /><br />Neck: Maple<br /><br />Fingerboard: Rosewood<br /><br />Hardware: Chrome, covered<br /><br />Controls: 1 Volume, 2 Tone, 5 way pickup selector switch<br />Frets: 22<br /><br />Pickups: S-S-S<br /><br />Bridge: Synchronized Tremolo<br /><br />Pickguard: Black<br /><br />Finish: Hi-gloss<br /><br />Each guitar features a 5-way selector switch, two tone controls and one volume control to shape your sound. Every inch of the guitar is coated in shiny, gloss black with no wood to be seen, augmenting the guitar's stage appearance. The pickups emit a glassy, clear tone as expected from a single coil; rhythm playing and accompaniment work very well on the guitar. When put through an overdrive pedal, the guitar responds like a Fender Stratocaster, making it suitable for rock and even country playing. The neck is in the shape of a soft "C" neck reminiscent of a Telecaster; this guitar would be suitable for players who are comfortable with their thumb on the back or side of the neck. The guitar is slightly on the heavy side, perhaps due to the full gloss finish but in no way does the it affect the guitar's playability and balance. As for the supplied amplifier, it does a good job of a first practice amplifier to learn the basics on, but will surely need to be upgraded once the player reaches a certain skill level. The included DVD is informative and runs through many beginner issues, and is of a great help to those just starting out.</p><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrpNyGjSgrkHBHPnOliGbHjSIzmP-Gw5z0ZQWpylMhMePz1RqZTdLdkBrow8anCPsi_f_M2sFZETATcBnOrxBbzKggLiB9UMBQ9lGdieJSsWXlZ2nZNVEeCx1x9NrWbTw4t3xyT-8_jOY/s320/Jaxville+Hades+Guitar+-+Airbrush+Reaper+with+Skull.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5634683016164131714" style="float: left; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 0px; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 126px; " /><p class="style1"><strong>CONCLUSION</strong><br /><br />After spending some time with these guitars, it can be said that the Jaxville Custom Series II guitars are truly catered for the entry-level player who is looking for a different axe to try out. The eye-catching design will surely attract the attention of those who want to stand out, and considering the market pricing of the guitar, it looks like a great bargain. The Jaxville guitar comes in a package as well, alongside an amplifier, soft case and instructional DVD. The guitar plays well, stays in tune and sounds decent. If you're looking for something unique and different for a first guitar, by all means go for it!</p>Ray Leehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07095748472133461001noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6939554215142905371.post-37827711844766574192010-12-15T12:59:00.002+08:002010-12-15T13:00:45.995+08:00Merry Christmas 2010<object width="640" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/n-hX0uh7moc?fs=1&hl=en_US"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/n-hX0uh7moc?fs=1&hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="640" height="385"></embed></object><br /><br /><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; ">Visit our new webpage at <a href="http://www.mamatreble.com.my/" target="_blank" title="http://www.mamatreble.com.my" rel="nofollow" dir="ltr" class="yt-uix-redirect-link" style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; outline-width: 0px; outline-style: initial; outline-color: initial; font-size: 12px; background-image: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: transparent; color: rgb(0, 51, 204); text-decoration: none; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; ">http://www.mamatreble.com.my</a><br /><br />Orkestra Simfoni Remaja's Principal Clarinettist, Eizaz Azhar, plays his own rendition of the Christmas carol "Hark!

The band JUNK consists of 5 young musicians from different backgrounds, coming together for a shared love of the music they play, jazz-funk - hence the name JUNK. The band enjoys the style of fusion groups such as the Chick Corea Elektric Band, Fourplay, Return To Forever and especially so for Japanese jazz fusion bands particularly T-Square, Casiopea and Dimension.<br /><br />An instrumental group, the band maintains a healthy balance between easy listening, jazz and progressive music, something very few youth bands play.

It is therefore a small part of a large group of instruments that produces great effects while one hears such orchestra. The violin is the smallest of the string instruments but has the highest sound and it is almost three times as many as there are violas or cellos. </span></div><span style="font-family:arial;"><div align="justify"><br />The lower string includes the <em><strong>viola</strong></em> that is a bit larger than the violin and very often used in harmony. Sometimes it gets melody but sounds very similar to violin and is tuned one fifth lower. The <strong><em>cello</em></strong> is an octave less than the viola and is played between the knees of the instrumentalist. It is having a mellow sound but doubles the violin's melody very often. <strong><em>The bass</em></strong> is the lowest of the strings and is played standing upright. It has the same strings as the violin but it is in reverse order and several octaves lower. </div><div align="justify"><br />Except the string instruments, very few people know that what exactly is an orchestra. <strong><em>Woodwind includes the flute, the clarinet, the piccolo, the bassoon, and the oboe</em></strong>. <strong><em>Piccolo</em></strong> is the highest of the woodwinds and is used for solos that are high enough to soar above the orchestra at many times. The flute and clarinet doubles the strings and in the recent times they have more melody. The bassoon is the lowest and is used to add color to the strings at the same time it has a lot of harmony and sometimes double the string parts. Oboe used to be an important part of the orchestra but now it is used very less.</div><div align="justify"><br /><strong><em>Brass</em></strong> is also an important part of an orchestra and these instruments project quite a bit and are used more often in melodies. <strong><em>French horn</em></strong> is one of the most useful brasses because it easily doubles the rest of the brasses. T<strong><em>rumpet </em></strong>is also well known instrument that is rather high to soar above the orchestra to be heard.</div><div align="justify"><br /><strong><em>Percussion</em></strong> is also important whereas <strong><em>tympani drum</em></strong> is the most important of all percussion as it provides beat as well as different tones. <strong><em>Snare drums, bass drums, gongs, xylophones, bells, triangles, etc. are also used.</em></strong></span></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6939554215142905371.post-66049088132047663122009-04-23T12:38:00.005+08:002009-04-23T12:43:05.281+08:00Tips - Good Buy Quality Orchestra and Band Instruments<div align="justify"><span style="font-family:arial;">Before you start looking for an instrument, here are some professional tips on how to choose quality instrument without breaking your budget.</span></div><span style="font-family:arial;"><div align="justify"><br />Each year, thousands beginning band and orchestra students begin the wonderful pursuit of learning a musical instrument only to be frustrated with a low quality instrument. Unfortunately, some companies produce and sell discount instruments that are such a low quality, students don't have a chance of succeeding in their first year of band or orchestra.</div><div align="justify"><br />How do you know which instruments are okay for a beginner? It's not easy since poor quality instruments look basically the same to the untrained eye. Their trumpets are just as shinny as better quality instruments and their violins can look beautiful at first glance.</div><div align="justify"><br />A general rule for band instruments is to check on where it was manufactured. Almost all instruments made in the <strong><em>U.S.A. and Japan</em></strong> are good for beginners. Some quality brands include <strong>Artley, Armstrong, Bach, Benge, Blessing, Boosey & Hawkes, Buffet, Bundy, Conn, Emerson, Gem üeinhardt, Getzen, Jupiter, Holton, King, Leblanc, Ludwig, Olds, Pearl, Remo, Selmer, Vito, Yamaha, Yanagisawa and Zildjian.</strong> </div><div align="justify"> </div><div align="justify"></div><div align="justify">Most band instruments manufactured in China are of very low quality. It's more difficult to determine the quality of a string instrument since their are a number of smaller makers from all countries who make quality string instruments. </div><div align="justify"> </div><div align="justify"></div><div align="justify">The best method to determine the quality of any instrument is to ask a local school band or orchestra director. They have seen the frustration of beginners who try to learn with a low quality instrument.</div><div align="justify"> </div><div align="justify"></div><div align="justify">In general, beware of instrument that are a lot cheaper than the others. The old buyer's rule is still true. <strong><em>‘‘You get what you pay for.’’</em></strong></span></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6939554215142905371.post-27896810331246308862009-04-22T02:42:00.002+08:002009-04-27T13:16:29.835+08:00Soloists for our upcoming concert<img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5323977624282895154" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 213px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjRWoBfBaErc9UoHNbjG8yHtGDpK9DJ2JQ-bBJdWJOLXBN7Wxgb0gG0xWsdtntRBdAXfcGvGPqNBJZbJRMT9YnFoUjQCC36Q7mNdzQANsCuWHB3NDzQD1SBwDwsc4juVM3Vdetf4MG6bQdz/s320/Conductor.jpg" border="0" /> <img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5323969783067054066" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 213px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiITSpBs5nCDBLMkxz0zdKKDGq_OTY0pnb-xiKPJdCm23GpV33p0VUWDSlUKND2W5kxZtfnnZiZwMo_BaviaM3sX-dGNzvGHcPreV6TFPCEBAyVt0W6emkqp9Prz1B-8LgF3bgKp0f6zpoL/s320/Tenor2.jpg" border="0" /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5323969793186386322" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 213px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEix3TEJaSN9eQD_JcBJ9rSwirZNBAlPbxCpQzyKPheUIT7jW1XDXVOtAt6oHUK9UDjpPl_sbrHuQtTb27dy3T6KLnI2y4lMowO1T2L6plv7w0y1SAcYUlC8TluAfJYCGbzC_JyJE1Tix1O-/s320/Trombone.jpg" border="0" /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5323969793037821666" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 213px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgV5w8IfdTqs-vU-Jb0Wywt347fhHmxLJr2hU_mUh0teJZL5nlp5DRD4eUDYArfe6vNKK-wYsn3RJHlVzSrHtJg3XqCmimexgfwZK3K1M-RbZ7YmDFnr97iXNsuhclqCQtgzreDTvzoEiD7/s320/DoubleBass.jpg" border="0" /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjoANp2QdIC-zCiTr0MGuDsgDj7QMzXBG1R-KkW6RR97EvlMfpo-lYhL9n-jDnxjP35G-B1CnFviIr6tARjRHwZyPxDEzmX43Bn56eeyZ6cA0jA_fEM6qTpROhyphenhyphenRudhmGB6G7hNvPrVEWqQ/s1600-h/Violin2.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5323969797312032466" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 213px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjoANp2QdIC-zCiTr0MGuDsgDj7QMzXBG1R-KkW6RR97EvlMfpo-lYhL9n-jDnxjP35G-B1CnFviIr6tARjRHwZyPxDEzmX43Bn56eeyZ6cA0jA_fEM6qTpROhyphenhyphenRudhmGB6G7hNvPrVEWqQ/s320/Violin2.jpg" border="0" /></a><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5323969787369190450" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 213px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEigR5u3waS7EPhfW_tCH8nV7bdBO5gXjg8t1rWlX0b_i7uUV24lI8bkBCTyhMWLe-L8jy298sg2KK6drJNWzBua_O_8Zpx6SizOpSQGAiS5Qkwq77pFrRL2mzwncrTMBDsT8mi26BTMYJjK/s320/Violin1.jpg" border="0" /><strong>Clockwise From Left</strong><br /><strong>Conductor:</strong> Mdm Mayya Musaeva<br /><strong>Saxophone & Clarinet:</strong> Eizaz Azhar<br /><strong>Double Bass:</strong> Dahlia Diyana<br /><strong>Violin:</strong> Liu-Yi Retallick<br /><strong>Violin:</strong> Wong Lu Ee<br /><strong>Trombone:</strong> Mustaqim AbdullahRay Leehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07095748472133461001noreply@blogger.com0
